Tesla Model 3 Brake Pads – Competition & Racing Spec

-

quick product info sheet

For Tesla Model 3 owners that like to frequent the track as much as we do, we have released our Competition & Racing Spec brake pads. Designed to be a “pure racing-style solution”, these Competition brake pads include a include more aggressive, high-friction brake pad compound.

As a result, we do not advise regular use on the street, as users will see accelerated rotor wear, as well as increased noise and dust. Additionally, the race-oriented compound requires heat to provide optimal results. However, on-track performance during Autocross, Time Attack and other, track-specific driving events will greatly benefit from a more track-oriented, aggressive brake pad compound, even with OEM brake rotors.

For even more improved braking performance, we advise you to take a look at our Tesla Model 3 Iron Big Brake Kit (BBK) and Superlight Carbon Ceramic Big Brake Kit options to absolutely optimize your braking performance far greater than just a brake pad upgrade.

Product Details

Unplugged Performance Tesla Model 3 Competition & Racing spec brake pads are designed to be a “pure” racing-style solution that includes a more aggressive, high-friction brake pad compound. As a result, we do not advise regular use on the street, as users will see accelerated rotor wear, as well as increased noise and dust. Additionally, the race-oriented compound requires heat to provide optimal results. However, on-track performance during Autocross, Time Attack and other, track-specific driving events will greatly benefit from a more track-oriented, aggressive brake pad compound, even with OEM brake rotors.

Simply put, these brake pads offer consistent performance over a very wide operating temperature range, reducing brake fade and offering a great aftermarket solution, perfect for on-track use.

SPECIFICATIONS:

  • Brake pad versions are available for both the factory Model 3 RWD / Dual Motor non-Performance calipers, as well as the factory calipers on the Model 3 Dual Motor Performance
  • Great pedal feel, incredible initial bite, improved heat resistance, and reduced stopping distance (when at proper operating temperatures)
  • Increased noise and dust levels over standard street-oriented or dual-use brake pads
  • Easy installation with no additional modifications or upgrades necessary

      Tesla Model 3 and Model Y Iron 6-Piston Front Big Brake Kit (BBK) UP x PFC
      Worth every penny. The iron BFB is one of my favorite things I’ve done to my car so far. Brakes are one of the most important things on a car and I notice such an improvement with these over stock brakes. On track I am able to brake much later into corners and the brakes have basically zero fade...

      These springs are a game changer. Completely revamped my M3 from a performance and cosmetic standpoint. Soft/comfortable during your daily commute and stiff/precise during "spirited" driving. Cabin noise is also drastically reduced. Cannot recommend this product enough. Call and ask for Kirk Nason,...

      Coupled with the FUCAs, the rear arms really help do a proper alignment. Definitely get these if you want to get a perfect alignment for your car, and better than OEM. I put -2 camber in the rear for my track day yesterday and achieved phenomenal handling in the corners. I also tried it out in drift...

      Love the look of these as they add a more aggressive look for the front. Same subtle style that goes along very well with the front lip for non-performance M3.

      Great add on for your Tesla to really dial in the alignment! Great time to do it is when you’re lowering your car already or getting an alignment anyways. Improving tire wear is very important for me as I drive a lot and been getting more miles/set than ever before. Highly recommend!
